I think the fact that Timmay was quite close to finishing Nog at several points (something Fedor never did) suggests that it wouldn't necessarily be a cake walk.

Timmay is boring and annoying but very underrated. However, Fedor's judo throws from a clinch present the same issues that Randy's GR tieups did. Shooting on him is virtually impossible though, as seen with Monson.

I think most of his 'greatness' was injected into his ass with a needle.

Nah he stuffed Monson's takedowns and out grappled him on the ground, took Arlovski's best shot and got up and knocked him out and played patty cakes with Nog's face. hat's not just roids but actual skill.

My biggest critique of big Tim is that he's always needed someone to push him to show some real skill.

I do agree with Upa's assessment that Fedors upper body Judo throws will be more effective on Tim - Assuming he can get in the big gargoyles reach.

Think about it...Randy comes out of retirement, destroys Tim, and gets the title. After one title defense, Randy throws a temper tantrum, and abruptly resigns and embarks on a law-suited filled quest to fight Fedor. Tim on the other hand, wins one lackluster fight, and loses his next fight only to leave the UFC on good terms and is handed a Fedor fight in a big new promotion.
